(Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - Many beginning speakers withdraw and pull back from the audience. In a sense they force the audience come to them. That can happen because of fear, personal insecurity, or a host of other reasons. Ideally, you want two things to happen when you speak. Loverage (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - Mark Victor Hanson uses the term “loverage” in his book, “The One Minute Millionaire.” It’s a combination of all your personal assets and love. Love exponentially multiplies effectiveness. A word from someone you love and who loves you contains more meaning and creates more action. Myth 1: You'll Always Be Nervous (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - You may feel that way, but it’s not true unless you have a disorder. I know some speakers who brag about still being nervous even after doing the same speech for ten years. C + C = KQ (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - Depending on your presentation focus you can use C + C = KQ to determine what aspect you need to emphasize. INFORMATION PRESENTERS For you the formula is Content is King – Charisma is Queen. Top Nine Characteristics of Great Speakers (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - 1. Solid Content. Even a person lacking charismatic gifts can develop solid content. Always share something the audience finds valuable to their lives. 2. Humorous. It's hard to hate someone you laugh with. Let Your Audience Speak (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - It was a good question - the kind that you want to think about. But before my mind could even begin to consider my answer, the speaker kept talking. She segued onto another topic and the question disappeared from my consciousness. Playing Off Another's Comments (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - The following example is about humor, but it will work for any situation. One of my ongoing humor takes is my height. At 5’6” I’m not tremendously short, but I’m not tall by any means. M.A.P.ing Your Presentations (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - One of the biggest fears that I think anyone has is to get in front of a group and give a less than perfect presentation. Introverts like myself feel especially vulnerable in such situations. Promote Yourself to Trade Show Sponsors (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - Want to gain added exposure at a trade show? Consider sponsoring a professional speaker at the attendees meeting. But don't just settle for a banner on the stage with your company name. Word Power (Jan 6, 2009 at 12:31 AM) - Words hurt, heal, motivate, and aggravate. They are powerful. They control emotions and can even control a person physically. A word is worth a thousand pictures. “Come here.” Two words that move a person from there to here. “Write this down.” Three words that cause people to put words on a page. “Remember a time when you felt angry.” Seven words that can create an overload of emotions.
